[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AproSamurai:
I'm also running Genocide v0.2a as a kernel if that is of any help.

I woke up this morning to my phone fully rebooted which has happened at random times on Genocide but it's been fine for the most part but today I was trying to install the D3 clock as well as the gbkb and I'm getting a parse error on all of them when they had worked previously. I tried reinstalling stock apps and parsing error as well, how would I fix this?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cjobanion:
I don't think that the kernel would be the reason for the random reboots. What Rom are you running?

Have you "checked" the "unknown sources" box in your settings>applications menu? Sometimes (all the time??) my Epic will not reload apps from a backup/restore program without that box checked. Most of the apps that I reinstall are from the market, but weren't downloaded as an Epic app because of the way our phones - using custom roms - had to be "identified" as something else (mine showed me as a nexus!)

Ok - with all that being said, it sounds like there could be an RFS/Ext4 issue. (Amend scipt files being loaded to an Ext4 file system or vice versa. ??)
[Atrix 4G General] plmiller0905:
I ordered my Atrix yesterday evening and I selected the Express shipping which states from the email that the estimated arrival is either Monday or Tuesday, no big deal there. I just want to make sure I'm at home when it comes.

I live in Wisconsin right near the Illinois border and if my mind serves me correctly, when I ordered my Nexus S, I had it in like 2 days. In fact it came from Illinois. But I ordered it on a Monday and had it delivered that Wednesday.

This is my first time ordering something on a Friday from Bestbuy. So I'm just wondering if anyone else ordered a phone through bestbuy before on a Friday, when was it actually shipped out?

I called Bestbuy and they said that it's at the stage that it's waiting to be picked up by UPS. I know UPS don't always deliver on Saturdays but do they at least pick up? Because I'm thinking that if they pick up today, I'll probably have my phone Monday.
[Atrix 4G General] Rred:
Ah, BestBuy is nothing special. AFAIK UPS does NO BUSINESS ON WEEKENDS except for the early Saturday morning deliveries ($$).

If you need Saturday shipping on an order, I think the only option is USPS and then only if someone from the merchant is able to post them. (A lot fo USPS locations close at noon on Saturday.) USPS does offer Express Mail, but it ain't cheap. They do pickup and deliver Express Mail when the couriers don't do anything though.

If it was ordered EARLY on a Friday, it might have shipped Friday evening. BB probably has a cut-off time for shipments, and if it shipped UPS, you should be able to get a tracking number that give you the predicted delivery date. AFTER UPS actually has picked it up, which might not be until Monday late evening.

Again, IF it is UPS, you can also contact UPS for "hold at terminal" and they'll hold it at the depot so you can pick it up at your convenience. If "express" means Fedex Ground, the old RPS team...good luck with that.

Does anyoe else's tab do this

When I scroll in a webpage or app, and I stop scrolling but still have my finger pressed on the screen, the screen starts to shake a little until I move my finger again, is it just my tab or is it a common thing?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] le3ky:
the only thing i can suggest is that you are slightly moving your finger, its sensitive so might look like its shaking?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] caveman999:
Mine does that too. I wouldn't be too worried about it since it only happens in the web browser for me.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mmathai77:
its not defective, its cause your holding your finger on it, especially in a web browser if your zoomed in a page and scroll it might happen.

its just your finger moving a tad bit that the tab senses. Also it might be catching two touch responses from your finger, not the tabs fault. Its the way you use it really.

Dont worry. The tabs touch response is pretty sensitive, which is VERY good thing trust me. Its better to be responsive then crappy on a touch tablet.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fgfaria:
Sorry, but yes, it is a problem

I'll respectfully disagree. I have the same issue in my galaxy tab, and I've tried several others, this behavior is found in just a few.

I've made a video and a drawing test to illustrate it. I've put them in a page in a domain that I own.

(XDA still doesn't allo me to paste a link, but the address is fgfaria.com )

I've tried an app called touchscreen booster, which appeared to be appropriate from its description, but didn't notice any difference.

But there is a very intriguing point. It doesn't look like it's a hardware problem. I have installed touch test app, and with that the touch is perfect, no shaking. Also, specifically in youtube app, when scrolling the list of videos, it doesn't happen.

I need to find out why it happens pretty much everywhere, but not on youtube app and touch test apps.

Just to make it even more complex: as you'll see in the picture in the url above, towards to the right edge of the screen the problem is much lighter or doesn't happen.

If someone can help, that would be hugely appreciated!

Thanks,

Fabio
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chris28j:
I'm getting this problem too. I get TERRIBLE shakiness when i hold finger input especially in google maps.

I highly doubt it's a hardware issue because this only started happening to me ever since i installed the italian gingerbread rom.

This this GB rom giving anyone else the same issue?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdfloresd:
Same problem here

I am also having the same problem, installed an application called "Touchscreen Booster" but no avail.

Strange thing is that the problem seems to not happen on Youtube application.

I also have GB 2.3.3, in my case, the overcome room 2.0.0
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fgfaria:
One possible solution

Did you guys check the url I've sent? (fgfaria.com)?

Is your problem just like mine? In my case, I had the problem since Froyo 2.2, and still have it (the same way, no change) after an update to 2.2.1.

My GT is not rooted, and I'm waiting for gingerbread to be made available through Kies in Brazil to proceed with the update.

Another interesting thing is that most touch test apps behave normally (no shakiness).

Possible good news: I've found an app in the Market called "ILITEK Touch Utility".

Unfortunately I couldn't use it in my GT as it appears to require the device to be rooted. But it has several features from calibration to screen software reset. Hopefully this may help, specially as it seems to be a software issue.

Let me know if this works for you.

Regards,

Fabio
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chris28j:
mine does EXACTLY the same thing as per your website.

the app does not seem to fix anything...

sigh...

at least good to know someone else is experiencing the same problem.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fgfaria:
The problem is app specific

Hi all,

In addition to touch test apps and youtube app, there are some other apps that don't present the problem. One specific interesting case is the one of the HelloListView tutorial presented in Android Developers website.

I've followed the tutorial, and created this illustrative app that just creates a list and allows you to scroll up and down. This specific app doesn't present the problem we've been discussing. I've made it available for download as apk file in the end of that same testing page (fgfaria.com)

That application being so simple and not presenting the problem, and the other apps that also don't present it, makes me think that the problem may appear when some specific library gets included in an app. Possibly something related to hardware acceleration, for example (just guessing, no specific reasons to believe that).

If only we could isolate the cause of the problem, we could notify Google and/or Samsung and influence a new patch release.

This is as far as I have gone so far. Ideas, reactions?

Regards,

Fabio
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fgfaria:
Or the libraries being used in this tutorial include some kind of filter not used in problematic apps...
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grukko:
I posted about the same problem here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1096698

I've included pics from my tests. Notice how before I installed the custom rom, the lines were perfectly smooth. This definitely has something to do with the software. We need to have one of the rom devs look at this and find out what might be the cause.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fgfaria:
hi grukko, thanks for your comment!

To me, the most intriguing part is that the behavior happens in some apps, and not in other. I have done a very similar test, which I've published in the address http://fgfaria.com

As you see in the thread, the problem doesn't happen in youtube app, and screen touch test apps and in the list tutorial app I've created following instructions in Android Developers website.

Can you check if your problem is the same checking if youtube doesn't "shake"?

Thanks!

Fabio
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grukko:
Your test results look similar to mine. I just tried youtube and it does not shake.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fgfaria:
New discovery:

It may be a hardware problem (at least in my case). A friend, in another forum noticed that the jittering only happens in screens with a light background, specially white.

This can be quickly tested, by opening a web page that has a white and a black part. Zooming in the white part (so that all background you see is white) and keeping the finger still, the screen starts shaking. If you move to the black part, zoom and keep you finger still, no shake at all.

Regards,

Fabio

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fgfaria:
No luck yet. Official upgrade to Gingerbread is not yet available in Brazil. I'm waiting for this upgrade to check if things get better, but I'm not so optmistic, as I've seen reports from many people to whom the problem actually started after the upgrade. Does anyone know if the problem has already been officially reported to Samsung?

[Desire HD General] LordManhattan:
Hi,

Today when i was going to call my mom, my genius DHD decided to call Feliz, a bar/club in my city. I don't even have their number!

Oh, the phone also thought it would be awesome if it started Songbird when i was listening to the HTC music app. You know, 3D sound... HTC, you fail :p

Has anybody else had this problem?
[Desire HD General] MAkS1:
Yes I had it the day before when I pressed one of my last calls in the dialer it selected a random other contact and called that one instead. I immediately hang up, tried it again and it happened again. The 3rd or 4th time it got it right.... It never happened before or after yet...
[Desire HD General] shithead:
Wow that's really a weird bug. Glad I haven't experience that bug (yet)
[Desire HD General] j3yps:
Most probably this is a network problem
[Desire HD General] LordManhattan:
This haven't happen again (today), but i'm almost forced to check the screen everytime i call somebody.

(Sorry about my english today, i've had a "couple" of beers.)
[Desire HD General] Elemental_Fire:
Bazooka...change your name to Booze-acher! XD Anyways the bug must be due to a program you may have in common? Or touch screen defects?
[Desire HD General] SAPPH1RE:
I think it's mostly network related problems.. Had it before on my nokia..
[Desire HD General] LordManhattan:
The touchscreen is perfect. I haven't installed apps that can cause this behaviour. Haven't had any problems after that "episode", but i'll report it if it happens again.
[Desire HD General] jords12:
Couple of beers? Your problem may be in that area then ;P
[Desire HD General] LordManhattan:
Hahah, it happened before the beers. I was actually on my way to the store to buy the beer :P But it didn't happen again while i was on the bottle, so i hope it were a one time thing.
[Desire HD General] tkolev:
There you go - a solution! If it happens again, you know what to do :D

On the serious side - I haven't experienced anything like that, but I noticed that on HTC's dialer (both on WM and Android) there is a delay in noting the number you call last, so when you use the list, you may press the right contact, then the dialer puts your last call on the top of list, all the last calls get scrolled one position down and you end up calling the wrong number. Hope I explained it right. It's really simple and very weird at the same time.
[Desire HD General] GurliGebis:
Happend to me the othere day too, tried to call somebody, and it seems to have called somebody else.

The number on the display was correct though, which is weird.

Has only happend once though.
[Desire HD General] LordManhattan:
The funny thing is that the number it called isn't on my phone. So it called a random number. Which makes it even weirder.
[Desire HD General] jaredlum1988:
Has not happened to be, yet.

It should be a rare issue though i hope!

To chime in, this also happened to me and three other mates, and we all have the DHD. On a couple of occations, we've dialed complete strangers when trying to reach each other. Same story; dialing from either speed-dial or using the contacts app, and the number dialed does not match the person on the other end.

We have the same carrier though, so I'm pretty sure this is a network related issue, but it's weird that I haven't heard of this happening with any other phones that other friends have.

[Xoom General] rlabarca:
Being new to Android, I'm trying to figure out the WiFi sleep policy setting and how the lock screen affects things.

My issue is that if I leave the tablet unplugged overnight, with the screen off, I lose about 10% power. The Battery Use History Details screen shows that WiFi is on consistently and it seems to be awake when it shouldn't be.

So here are my questions:

1. Does disabling the lock screen cause the device to stay awake when the screen is off? It seems like there is a correlation between when I disabled the lock screen and it staying awake consistently, but it might have been an app I installed.

2. If I did not activate the device on the cellular network, and disabled mobile data, is there a WiFi disconnect policy that will turn on WiFi only to poll once in a while for mail and other updates but not stay on consistently?

I think I might be running into one of the big differences between Android and iOS here. iOS' push updates allows the device to use data collections very efficiently to get updates from the network, because it only has to poll one data source to get updates for all apps who require it. In May 2010, Google introduced Cloud to Device Messaging for Android, but how many apps use it? And does the device have a WiFi policy that only lets apps that use C2DM do their updates and then shut the connection off?
[Xoom General] bwcorvus:
By default your wifi connection is set to never shut off. Settings/Wireless & networks/wifi settings/wifi disconnect policy. Change this to when screen is off.
[Xoom General] rlabarca:
Thanks, but I still want to be able to turn on my device and see new messages quickly. I assume it won't check for new mail at all with the WiFi off.
[Xoom General] bwcorvus:
I don't think you can do this with a stock android os. Its either on or off. Now you can download apps for phones, no idea if they work for tablet yet. Think one is called tasker and another juice defender. Basically they tell the tablet when it can and can't use data.
